Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0749881A1] The rail vehicle has a chassis (19) which has towards each of its ends a pivoted bogey (11). The bogey pivot comprises two rods (41,42) which are arranged so that the bogie pivots about a fictitious axis (16) moved backwards to the vehicle middle. A control (50) angularly positions the bogey relative to the chassis about the pivot axis as a function of the angle between the vehicle longitudinal axis (17) and the track direction at the vehicle end supported by the bogey. The pivoting rods are located either side the vehicle axis and connect the chassis to a bogey support plate (40). The rods are pivoted on the chassis and on the plate and extend in the respective convergent directions (47,48). The intersection point of these directions is displaced towards the middle of the vehicle.
